Description

The Jewel Thieves Outwitted (Hepworth, 1913). British One
Sheet (30.25" X 40.25").
Prolific doesn't begin to describe British director Frank Wilson,
who made an 270+ silent films from 1907 to 1922. Here, he directs
Jack Hulcup and Violet Hopson in this thrilling short, featuring a
highflying chase scene between an automobile and an airplane. The
first of any paper sold for this title at Heritage, this lovely
country of origin stone litho poster has had touchup applied to
some of the folds, and the poster still shows slight edge wear,
small stains in the borders, and toning and foxing in the folds.
Fine/Very Fine on Linen.
